Trampling in the Land of Woe
Part 1 of the Patron Saints of Hell series
Through a steampunk inferno he descended, hopelessly seeking his lover and king.
In New Dis, there is no rest for the dead. Sprouting from the rim of Hell's depths, not even this bohemian city of the afterlife-full of mercantile enterprises, engineering innovations, and political intrigue-is immune to the tragedies filtering down into it as World War I rages on Earth above.
Hephaestion, lover and confidant of Alexander the Great, has one goal: rescue Alexander from the torment of Hell. Yet far more souls bar his way than he'd ever anticipated, and Hephaestion will have to use both brains and brawn against the underworld's least savory opponents, including scheming Jesuits and infamous demons.
